Here’s remembering some of the most famous couplets by Rahat Indori which beautifully describes life and death
- Aañkh meñ paanī rakho hoñToñ pe chiñgārī rakho, Zinda rahnā hai to tarkībeñ bahut saarī rakho
- Ek hī naddī ke haiñ ye do kināre dosto, dostāna zindagī se maut se yaarī rakho
- Ab na Main hu, Na baki Hai Zamane mere, fir bhi Mashoor Hai Shayaro mein fasane mere
- Ye Hadsa toh Kisi Din Guzarne Vala Tha, Bach Bhi Jata Toh Ek Roz Marne Vala Tha
- Mehfil nahi rahi. Do gaz sahi, magar ye meri milkiyat to hai Aye maut, tu ne mujhko zamindaar kar diya
- Raah Mein Khatre bhi Hai, Lekin Thehrta Kon Hai, Maut Aani Hai Aaj Aa ajaye, Darta Kon Hai
- Mein Jab Mar Jau Toh Meri Alag Pehchan Likh Dena, Lahu se Meri Peshani Par Hindustan Likh Dena
He will always be remembered for his eternal words, Rest In Peace Rahat Indori!
